The train

Before I know what´s happening, Leanne and I are standing in a room as big as our kitchen, bath and the sleeping room of me, Simon and Otto together. In there our two mentors and Twiksi are waiting.

"Ah, they are here, how fantastic!" Twiksi shouts excited with this terrible accent.

A man, one of our mentors, stands up and greets us:"Hello, my name is Byron, I will mentor Leanne and Mags will mentor Finnick."

I turn to the old woman who is sitting in a chair next to Byron. She gives me a big smile, which I return, and I know we´ll get along well.

"Now sit down and eat something." Byron continues and points at the table. Both of us obey, now when I notice the amount of food, I quickly sit down and begin to eat. I don´t know where to start first but fish is always a good choice, so I eat salmon with potatoes. It´s delicious. After that I try some sort of dessert that is made of chocolate.

"So, what are your strengths?" Byron asks and looks hopefully at me and Leanne. I don´t answer because right now I´m eating something sweet that tastes pretty good but I´ve no idea what it is called. After swallowing I response: "Why should I tell you and Leanne my strengths when we´re opponents?"

"Well, when you want to ally I think it´s the best to know some things about each other that are helpful in the Arena." Byron says and looks at both of us. There is an unspoken question in the room: Do we want to be allies?

I think about it:

Pro: Allies are helpful, it´s easier to survive.

Con: If you know your allies for a while you could begin to like them and then later on can´t kill them because of this.

Pro: You could sleep while the other is awake and can alarm you if you´re in danger.

Con: Allies can betray you, you could trust them and then be killed while you´re sleeping.

I don´t know right now if I want to have allies but I know that I don´t trust Leanne. I don´t know her but I have heard things, small things like betraying her boyfriend, but even this tells me not to trust her.

As well Leanne doesn´t seem so happy about the idea to have me as her ally and she says so: "Why should I ally with this kid. I mean he´s 14, how can he help me?"

"Yeah, and why should I want to ally with an arrogant bitch?" I response angrily.

Leanne gives me a hateful look and opens her mouth to say something but Byron interrupts us: "Okay, then no allies. Leanne come with me, we´ll speak about tactics in your room."
They stand up and vanish through the glass door.

When they are gone I turn to Mags and open my mouth to ask her 1000 things about the Games but before I can say anything she speaks.

"So Finnick, you trained?"

"No", I answer, "I mean not like Leanne or the careers but I worked with my father as a fisher."
"Anything good?" is her only response, I notice that she doesn´t speak in whole sentences but I understand what she wants to know.

"I´m pretty good with a trident, can not nets and have some practice with knifes from gutting the fish. Sometimes I have to use a spear instead of the trident. But I´m not as good with knives and spears as with a trident." I explain.

Mags nods. "Survival?"

"Well, knotting as I said, making a fire is no problem, but I don´t know very much about plants and berries and I have never tried camouflage." I answer honestly.

"Work on this and knives, spears. Avoid tridents." I nod, I don´t want the others to know my greatest strength.

"Allies?"

"I don´t know." ,I say truthfully, "But I really don´t want to be with the carreers."

"Good choice." Mags gives me a smile which I return.

"What happens now?" I ask her.

"Tomorrow we´ll arrive in Capitol, then Stylist, chariot ride" she answers.

"Yes, I know this. I mean: what will we do now? What can I learn to survive?"

"Sponsors, make people love you.", I nod and she continues, "Not Cornucopia, too dangerous. I get things you need."

"But when I have no sponsors-"

"You will. Look at you."

At this I smirk and say: "I´m really sorry but I think I´m a bit young for you."

She slaps my head and murmurs something like silly boy but she smiles and I´m laughing.

I continue to fool around a bit and almost forget about the Games. Almost.

"Do you have some other tips for me?" I ask Mags.

"First water" I nod and can´t prevent yawning.

Mags smiles and says: "Go bed."

I obey, stand up and turn around one last time. "Good night, until tomorrow."

Mags smiles. "Sweet dreams."

Then I go to my room. When I enter I´m astonished: the room is very big, painted blue and in the center there is a big bed which looks very comfy.

On the right there´s a TV and on the left there´s a door. I open it and see a bathroom with a shower, many towels and everything you need.

I decide that now is a very good time to clean myself, so I get undressed and enter the shower. There are many buttons and I don´t which one to press, so I try all of them. It´s very fascinating, one is for the water, one for the temperature, many are for all kinds of shower gel.

When I finish I dry myself with a towel and go the wardrobe. I pick a plain gray T-shirt and green boxershorts for sleeping, then I lay down.

The bed is as comfy as it looks, I close my eyes and before I know it I´m asleep.
